The Vanderbeekers have lived in the brownstone in Harlem all of their lives, but five days before Christmas, their landlord, Mr. Breiderman, refuses to renew their lease. The five children conspire how to change Mr. Breiderman's mind, but the outcome of each of their plans does not transpire as they imagined.
It is so refreshing to read a novel with two parents who love each other and a family who supports each other. Their "family" also extends to the individuals living in their brownstone and their community.
This book is a perfect one to discuss how each person has an unique story and that kindness can heal.
Perfect family read aloud.
**Highly, highly recommend.
-Borrowed from the library.
Two more books in this series are coming in 2018 and 2019.
